Mr. Fournie Yes, this would be a blanket exemption for all the projects. Take care Richard Grimaldi Deputy Director Pima County Department of Environmental Quality 33 N. Stone Ave., Suite 700 Tucson, AZ 85701 Phone (520) 724 7363 [email protected]

From: Glenn Fournie [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2016 3:35 PM To: Richard Grimaldi Subject: RE: Air Quality question Miracle Point apartments

Mr. Grimaldi, thank you for the information. We do probably 10 similar affordable housing projects each year within the City of Tucson city limits. Is this a blanket exemption from conformity review for housing projects of this type or is this project specific? I can send a description of each project when they come up for environmental review for your review. sincerely, Glenn

>>> Richard Grimaldi > 10/4/2016 3:16 PM >>> Mr. Fournie The project is located in an area that has an EPA approved Limited Maintenance Plan (LMP) for carbon monoxide. The Tucson Air Planning Area (TAPA) was classified by EPA as a maintenance area in 1996. In 2009, EPA approved a second 10 year maintenance period as an LMP and approves the plan for transportation conformity purposes. Under the EPA LMP policy, such an approval means that the Pima Association of Governments (PAG), the Federal Highway Administration, and the Federal Transit Administration are required to satisfy the regional emissions analysis for CO under 40 CFR 93.118 and/or 40 CFR 93.119 in determining conformity of transportation plans and programs in the Tucson Air Planning Area (74 FR 67820 (December 21, 2009)). As part of the emission inventory for the LMP, nonroad emissions from construction were calculated and budgeted in the approved plan. As such, emissions from construction during this project are accounted for in the LMP and will not result in a violation of the CO standard. A specific conformity review is not required for this project. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Richard/Scott, The below email from a COT inspector has a request from the EPA to have him check with the local air quality district to see if his project requires a “conformity review”? I’ve never heard of such a request and plan to just tell him that COT limits are currently in compliance with the NAAQS. Thanks, Dustin From: Glenn Fournie [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2016 1:19 PM To: Dustin Fitzpatrick Cc: Ramona Williams; Tracy Odishaw Subject: Air Quality question Miracle Point apartments

Dustin, thanks for your help. The more I dig into this the more confused I get. There will be no incinerator or other air polluting devices on site.

2940-2960 N. Oracle Road, Tucson Pima County AZ 85705. The planned project includes new construction of 34 one-bedroom and 6 two- bedroom single story units in an attached town house configuration, landscaped and fenced common areas, walkways, paved parking areas and a 2500 square foot community building. The average square footage of the one-bedroom units will be 650 square feet, the two-bedrooms 800 square feet. The project site is a vacant lot that has been cleared, graded, leveled for construction and sewer lines installed but not connected for a 46 unit townhouse project that was never built.

So if I'm reading this right City of Tucson (within City limits) is in a non-attainment maintenance status for carbon monoxide only.

Here are the comments from Kathleen McNulty at HUD Region IX for Air Quality. The EPA website for the attainment status is https://www.epa.gov/green-book/green-book-national-area-and-county-level-multi-pollutant- information On that page under #2 are links to the attainment status for each criteria pollutant for every US county. The Tucson/Pima County SIP is at https://yosemite.epa.gov/R9/r9sips.nsf/Agency?ReadForm&count=500&state=&cat=Pima-Agency- Wide+Provisions. This housing project probably does not require a conformity review. You could email the air quality control district and ask if the project requires a conformity review and include the email as supporting documentation.

ADEQ and Pima County Air Department sites for compliance have been reviewed and these agencies have no concerns about multi-family or small apartment complexes (under 100 units) development in existing residential areas changing or adversely impacting air quality control standards. ADEQ has no active impact sites in Tucson. Review of National Priority List sites for subject impact at http://www.cqs.com/super_az.htm with negative findings for the subject. The project is located within an "attainment" area, OR, if within a "non-attainment" area, conforms with the EPA-approved State Implementation Plan (SIP), per contact with the State Air Quality Management District or Board, AND the project requires no individual NESHAP permit or notification.

Return data from ADEQ/Pima County Department of Air Quality Concerning 2940-2960 N. Oracle Road, Tucson, 85705. Pima County reviews show the project area of 2940-2960 N. Oracle Road, Tucson, Arizona, 85705 on review date September 1, 2016 Is not found in the list of sites out of compliance with SIP.

Pima County Department of Environmental Quality and its predecessors have conducted air monitoring in the Tucson, Arizona area since the 1960's. PDEQ monitors ambient (outdoor) air pollutants at 17 monitoring stations located throughout eastern Pima County, including the Tucson metropolitan area and Green Valley. There are six principal pollutants, called “criteria” pollutants that are monitored in accordance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to comply with the Federal Clean Air Act. The NAAQS were established to protect public health and the environment from harmful levels of air pollution.

There are six air pollutants monitored by PDEQ which are: carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O3), particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and lead (Pb).

8/16/2016 11:49 AM IPaC v3.0.8 Page 9 IPaC Trust Resources Report Wetlands

Wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats may be subject to regulation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, or other State/Federal statutes.

For more information please contact the Regulatory Program of the local U.S. Army Corps of Engineers District.

DATA LIMITATIONS The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.

The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.

Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site.

DATA EXCLUSIONS Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.

DATA PRECAUTIONS Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities.

There are no wetlands in this location

5. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT OR UNDERTAKING: The City of Tucson retained WestLand Resources, Inc. (WestLand), to conduct a cultural resources inventory prior to the proposed construction of the Miracle Pointe apartment complex on a parcel at the intersection of Oracle Road and Blacklidge Drive in the city of Tucson, Pima County, Arizona. Construction plans include the construction of 34 one-bedroom and 6 two-bedroom single-story units in an attached townhouse configuration, landscaped and fenced common areas, walkways, paved parking areas, and a 2,500-square-foot community building, along with associated grading and site preparation. The project is being funded, in part, by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development and is therefore considered a federal action subject to Section 106 Review under the National Historic Preservation Act, 54 U.S.C. §300101, et seq. (formerly 16 U.S.C. §470, et seq.). This report complies with the Arizona Antiquities Act reporting standards and the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office guidelines that were revised in January 2016.

6. PROJECT AREA/AREA OF POTENTIAL EFFECTS: The approximately 2.1-acre project area (Pima County Assessor’s Parcel No. 107-12-170F) is located at 2940–2960 North Oracle Road, Tucson, Arizona 85705. More specifically, it is located within Township 13 South, Range 13 East, a portion of Section 36, Gila and Salt River Baseline and Meridian (Tucson North 7.5′ USGS quadrangle).

9. ENVIRONMENTAL CONTEXTS

9a. Landform: The project area is located in the northwest-central Tucson Basin on the dissected distal bajada emanating north-northwestward from the .

9b. Elevation: 2,355 feet above sea level

9c. Surrounding Topographic Features: The project area is located 3.5 miles north-northeast of , 8 miles south-southwest of , 17 miles west of the , and 27 miles northwest of the Santa Rita Mountains.

9d. Nearest Drainage: The Santa Cruz River is located approximately 1.5 miles west of the project area and the Rillito River is 2.3 miles to the north. The confluence of these two major drainages is 5.6 miles northwest of the project area.

9e. Local Geology: The local surficial geology is composed of Quaternary surficial deposits that are up to 2 million years old (Arizona Geological Survey 2016).

9f. Vegetation: The vegetation in the project area is very sparse and has been affected by recent land development. Prior to development, this portion of the Tucson Basin would have contained vegetation typical of the Arizona Upland subdivision of the Sonoran Desertscrub biotic province (D. Brown 1994), including mesquite (Prosopis sp.), palo verde (Cercidium microphyllum), creosote (Larrea tridentata), saguaro (Carnegiea gigantea), prickly pear (Opuntia phaeacantha), fish-hook barrel (Ferocactus wislizenii), various cholla species (Opuntia sp.), and numerous seasonal grasses and forbs. Currently, the project area is sparsely vegetated with sapling trees (palo verde and mesquite), low shrubs (desert broom [Baccharis sarothroides]), and annual weeds and grasses.

9g. Soils/Deposition: Generally, the substratum of this landform consists of mixed sandy and gravelly alluvium deposits. However, the parcel has been subjected to recent land modification, including grading, cutting, filling, and lifting, such that the entirety of the project area has been either graded down to sterile sediments or covered with redeposited material. No original grade or native substratum remains.

9h. Buried Deposits: The potential for buried cultural deposits is low.

9i. Justification: No surficial evidence was observed to suggest the potential for buried deposits, and recent land modification has likely disturbed or removed any potential buried deposits that may have once been present.

10. BUILT ENVIRONMENT: No standing structures are present within the project area, although according to recent aerial photographs, plumbing and sewer hookups for an earlier abandoned housing project were apparently installed in the late 2000s. The parcel immediately to the south contains a restaurant constructed in 1953. The parcel to the east contains buildings constructed in the 1980s. Several buildings from the 1940s are located immediately north of the parcel; and immediately to the west are Oracle Road and buildings and structures constructed in the 1950s. No current National Register of Historic Places-listed properties or Historic Districts are located within the project area or in its vicinity.

18. COMMENTS: The cultural resources inventory conducted on July 7, 2016, resulted in the identification of no archaeological sites and no isolated occurrences of cultural materials. Historical map and aerial photograph research revealed previous uses of the project area parcel. The 1905 Tucson 30′ USGS quadrangle showed an east-west-oriented road intersecting the project area—part of a vast network of roads connecting the areas north of Tucson to Old Fort Lowell to the east and the railroad line and the Santa Cruz River to the west. No traces of this road were found in the project area during the field survey. Subsequent USGS quadrangles show this part of Tucson as “urbanized” and omit detail about specific structures in the project area. However, historical aerial photographs from 1936, 1941, and 1958 show a series of structures in the northwestern and central portions of the project area. The configuration of the structures and their location along two major historical highway corridors (US Highway 80, along Oracle Road, and the historical route of Arizona State Highway 84 along Miracle Mile) suggest that the structures were part of a motor court with an associated owner/operator residence. A historical postcard published in a historical context statement for the Miracle Mile Corridor prepared for the City of Tucson Historic Preservation Office and Department of Urban Planning and Design (Clinco 2009:19) shows a Pueblo Revival-style motor court called Ransom’s Court that was once located at 2944 North Oracle Road. The motor court was apparently demolished in the late 1950s or early 1960s as the 1967 aerial photograph shows the project area as a vacant lot. No traces of the motor court were found in the project area during the current survey, likely due to the recent earthmoving activities there. No other historical features such as roads, utilities, or structures that might be considered sites are present in the project area. Additionally, the project area is included within the boundary of the proposed Miracle Mile National Register Historic District. According to Jonathan Mabry, Historic Preservation Officer for the City of Tucson, the District has not yet been listed on the National Register as it has not been determined eligible by the Arizona State Historic Preservation Office. Nonetheless, the project area parcel is considered a non-contributing element to this District. WestLand therefore recommends that no historic properties will be affected by the proposed project and that the proposed project may proceed with no further archaeological work. WestLand provides the general recommendation that all ground-disturbing activities have the potential to unearth archaeological sites or human remains and that if any such discoveries are found, they must be treated in accordance with Arizona Revised Statute §41-865.

SECTION 21. DISCOVERY CLAUSE:

In the event that previously unreported cultural resources are encountered during ground-disturbing activities, all work must immediately cease within 30 meters (100 feet) until a qualified archaeologist has documented the discovery and evaluated its eligibility for the Arizona or National Register of Historic Places in consultation with the lead agency, the SHPO, and Tribes, as appropriate. Work must not resume in this area without approval of the lead agency.

If human remains are encountered during ground-disturbing activities, all work must immediately cease within 30 meters (100 feet) of the discovery and the area must be secured. The Arizona State Museum, lead agency, SHPO, and appropriate Tribes must be notified of the discovery. All discoveries will be treated in accordance with NAGPRA (Public Law 101-601; 25 U.S.C. 3001-3013) or Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S. § 41-844 and A.R.S. § 41-865), as appropriate, and work must not resume in this area without authorization from ASM and the lead agency.

APPENDIX-N WETLANDS

Miracle Point Apartments IPaC Trust Resources Report Generated August 16, 2016 11:49 AM MDT, IPaC v3.0.8 IPaC Trust Resources Report Wetlands Wetlands in the National Wetlands Inventory Impacts to NWI wetlands and other aquatic habitats may be subject to regulation under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, or other State/Federal statutes. For more information please contact the Regulatory Program of the local U.S. Army Corps of Engineers District.

DATA LIMITATIONS The Service's objective of mapping wetlands and deepwater habitats is to produce reconnaissance level information on the location, type and size of these resources. The maps are prepared from the analysis of high altitude imagery. Wetlands are identified based on vegetation, visible hydrology and geography. A margin of error is inherent in the use of imagery; thus, detailed on-the-ground inspection of any particular site may result in revision of the wetland boundaries or classification established through image analysis.

The accuracy of image interpretation depends on the quality of the imagery, the experience of the image analysts, the amount and quality of the collateral data and the amount of ground truth verification work conducted. Metadata should be consulted to determine the date of the source imagery used and any mapping problems.

Wetlands or other mapped features may have changed since the date of the imagery or field work. There may be occasional differences in polygon boundaries or classifications between the information depicted on the map and the actual conditions on site. DATA EXCLUSIONS Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and nearshore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery.

DATA PRECAUTIONS Federal, state, and local regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over wetlands may define and describe wetlands in a different manner than that used in this inventory. There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of proprietary jurisdiction of any Federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Persons intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and proprietary jurisdictions that may affect such activities. There are no wetlands in this location APPENDIX O – WILD AND SCENIC RIVERS

This report shows the values for environmental and demographic indicators and EJSCREEN indexes. It shows environmental and demographic raw data (e.g., the estimated concentration of ozone in the air), and also shows what percentile each raw data value represents. These percentiles provide perspective on how the selected block group or buffer area compares to the entire state, EPA region, or nation. For example, if a given location is at the 95th percentile nationwide, this means that only 5 percent of the US population has a higher block group value than the average person in the location being analyzed. The years for which the data are available, and the methods used, vary across these indicators. Important caveats and uncertainties apply to this screening-level information, so it is essential to understand the limitations on appropriate interpretations and applications of these indicators.

EJSCREEN is a screening tool for pre-decisional use only. It can help identify areas that may warrant additional consideration, analysis, or outreach. It does not provide a basis for decision-making, but it may help identify potential areas of EJ concern. Users should keep in mind that screening tools are subject to substantial uncertainty in their demographic and environmental data, particularly when looking at small geographic areas. Important caveats and uncertainties apply to this screening-level information, so it is essential to understand the limitations on appropriate interpretations and applications of these indicators. Please see EJSCREEN documentation for discussion of these issues before using reports. This screening tool does not provide data on every environmental impact and demographic factor that may be relevant to a particular location. EJSCREEN outputs should be supplemented with additional information and local knowledge before taking any action to address potential EJ concerns.

A review was conducted at http://ejscreen.epa.gov/mapper/index.html for Environmental Justice Criterial which may have an adverse effect on the proposed undertaking. This report shows environmental, demographic, and EJ indicator values. It shows environmental and demographic raw data (e.g., the estimated concentration of ozone in the air), and also shows what percentile each raw data value represents. These percentiles provide perspective on how the selected block group or buffer area compares to the entire state, EPA region, or nation. For example, if a given location is at the 95th percentile nationwide, this means that only 5 percent of the US population has a higher block group value than the average person in the location being analyzed. Areas of concern are highlighted in red in this review. This project will not be expected to result in an adverse environmental justice impact.

This review has evaluated Environmental Justice as the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. Per the EPA screening, this review is intended to provide equity, where everyone enjoys the same degree of protection from environmental and health hazards and equal access to the decision-making process to have a healthy environment in which to live, learn, and work.
